QUAKER HOUGHTON ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2022 RESULTS

CONSHOHOCKEN, PA – Quaker Houghton (“the Company”) (NYSE: KWR), the global leader in industrial process fluids, today announced its second quarter 2022 results.

* Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations section below for additional information

Second Quarter 2022 Consolidated Results

Second quarter 2022 net sales were a record of $492.4 million, an increase of 13% compared to $435.3 million in the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in selling price and product mix of approximately 22% and additional net sales from acquisitions of 1%, partially offset by a 6% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation and a 4% decrease in organic sales volumes. The increase in selling price and product mix was primarily attributable to double-digit price increases in all segments in response to ongoing and unprecedented raw material and supply chain-related inflationary pressures. The decline in organic sales volumes was primarily attributable to COVID-19 related disruptions in China, the wind-down of the tolling agreement for products previously divested related to the Quaker Houghton combination, the impact of the war in Ukraine and the Company’s ongoing value based pricing initiatives, partially offset by net new business wins.

The Company generated net income in the second quarter of 2022 of $14.3 million or $0.80 per diluted share, compared to the prior year quarter net income of $33.6 million or $1.88 per diluted share. Excluding non-recurring and non-core items in each period, the Company’s second quarter of 2022 non-GAAP earnings per diluted share was $1.32 compared to $1.82 in the prior year quarter. The Company’s second quarter of 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $58.5 million declined compared to $70.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, as the increase in net sales was more than offset by lower gross margins primarily attributable to significant increases in raw material and other costs, compared to the prior year period.

Andy Tometich, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “We delivered another quarter of record net sales in the second quarter, driven by strong price realization and above market volume growth. As expected our earnings declined primarily due to ongoing inflationary pressures, COVID-19 disruptions in China, unfavorable foreign currency translation, geopolitical issues and other disruptions that impacted our customers and end markets. Notwithstanding, we delivered significant price increases which offset the raw material inflation and helped to stabilize our gross margins on a sequential basis. I am energized by the commitment and focus of our people who continually demonstrate their dedication to delivering on our objectives and the value proposition of our products and services to our customers.

Looking ahead, our focus remains on executing on items within our control. We are actively working with our customers to get the needed pricing to offset the persistent inflationary pressures on our margins while remaining vigilant on our costs. Therefore, despite significant uncertainty caused by several macroeconomic factors, we continue to expect to deliver sequential gross margin expansion and earnings growth in the second half of 2022.”

Second Quarter 2022 Segment Results

The Company’s second quarter 2022 operating performance of each of its four reportable operating segments: (i) Americas; (ii) Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); (iii) Asia/Pacific; and (iv) Global Specialty Businesses, are further described below.

* Refer to the Segment Measures and Reconciliations section below for additional information

All four segments benefitted from double-digit increases in selling price and product mix in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior year quarter. Organic sales volumes increased approximately 10% in Global Specialty Businesses compared to the prior year quarter, while the other segments declined due to the impacts on sales volumes mentioned above. The EMEA and Asia/Pacific segments were also significantly impacted by unfavorable foreign currency translation. Operating earnings from the Global Specialty Businesses and Americas segments increased compared to the prior year quarter whereas the other segments declined due to continued raw material and other inflationary cost pressures, the impact of the COVID-19 disruptions in China on our Asia/Pacific segment, and the unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation.

All four segments benefitted from increases in selling price and product mix compared to the first quarter of 2022, as we continued our strategic pricing initiatives. Organic sales volumes increased compared to the first quarter of 2022 in the Global Specialty Businesses and the Americas but declined in Asia/Pacific and EMEA, primarily due to COVID-19 disruptions in China, which impacted our Asia/Pacific segment, as well as lower sales volumes attributable to the war in Ukraine, and the Company’s ongoing value based pricing initiatives, partially offset by net new business wins. Asia/Pacific and EMEA were also unfavorably impacted by foreign currency translation.

Cash Flow and Liquidity Highlights

The Company had a net operating cash outflow of $2.1 million during the second quarter of 2022, bringing the year-to-date net operating cash outflow to $8.4 million, compared to a net operating cash outflow of $9.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The net operating cash outflow in both periods reflects working capital investment primarily related to higher accounts receivable due to increases in net sales and higher inventory due primarily to rising raw material costs and to a lesser extent an increase in certain inventory stocks in response to global supply chain and logistics challenges.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company successfully amended its credit agreement and extended the maturity from August 2024 to June 2027. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s total gross debt was $989.1 million and its cash and cash equivalents was $202.3 million. The Company’s net debt was approximately $786.8 million, and its net debt divided by its trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA was approximately 3.2x.

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations

The information included in this press release includes non-GAAP (unaudited) financial information that includes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information as they enhance a reader’s understanding of the financial performance of the Company, are indicative of future operating performance of the Company, and facilitate a comparison among fiscal periods, as the non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company presents EBITDA which is calculated as net income attributable to the Company before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and taxes on income before equity in net (loss) income of associated companies. The Company also presents adjusted EBITDA which is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus certain items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. In addition, the Company presents non-GAAP operating income which is calculated as operating income plus or minus certain items that are not indicative of future operating performance or not considered core to the Company’s operations. Adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP operating margin are calculated as the percentage of adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP operating income to consolidated net sales, respectively. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide transparent and useful information and are widely used by investors, analysts, and peers in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating performance of the Company on a consistent basis.

Additionally, the Company presents non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share as additional performance measures. Non-GAAP net income is calculated as adjusted EBITDA, defined above, less depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and taxes on income before equity in net (loss) income of associated companies, in each case adjusted, as applicable, for any depreciation, amortization, interest or tax impacts resulting from the non-core items identified in the reconciliation of net income attributable to the Company to adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share is calculated as non-GAAP net income per diluted share as accounted for under the “two-class share method.” The Company believes that non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share provide transparent and useful information and are widely used by investors, analysts, and peers in our industry as well as by management in assessing the operating performance of the Company on a consistent basis.

As it relates to 2022 projections for the Company as well as other forward-looking information described further above, the Company has not provided guidance for comparable GAAP measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because it is unable to determine with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items necessary to calculate such measures without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, certain non-recurring or non-core items the Company may record that could materially impact net income, as well as the impact of COVID-19. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.

The Company’s reference to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA within this press release refers to the twelve month period ended June 30, 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $245.8 million, which includes (i) the six months ended June 30, 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $118.9 million, as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations below, and (ii) the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 adjusted EBITDA of $274.1 million, as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations included in the Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2021 results press release dated February 24, 2022, less (iii) the six months ended June 30, 2021 adjusted EBITDA of $147.2 million, as presented in the non-GAAP reconciliations below.

Certain of the prior period non-GAAP financial measures presented in the following tables have been adjusted to conform with current period presentation. The following tables reconcile the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures (unaudited) to their most directly comparable GAAP (unaudited) financial measures (dollars in thousands unless otherwise noted, except per share amounts):

Segment Measures and Reconciliations

The Company’s operating segments, which are consistent with its reportable segments, reflect the structure of the Company’s internal organization, the method by which the Company’s resources are allocated and the manner by which the chief operating decision maker assesses the Company’s performance. The Company has four reportable segments: (i) Americas; (ii) EMEA; (iii) Asia/Pacific; and (iv) Global Specialty Businesses. The three geographic segments are composed of the net sales and operations in each respective region, excluding net sales and operations managed globally by the Global Specialty Businesses segment, which includes the Company’s container, metal finishing, mining, offshore, specialty coatings, specialty grease and Norman Hay businesses. Segment operating earnings for each of the Company’s reportable segments are comprised of the segment’s net sales less directly related COGS and selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses not directly attributable to the net sales of each respective segment, such as certain corporate and administrative costs, Combination, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, and Restructuring and related charges, are not included in segment operating earnings. Other items not specifically identified with the Company’s reportable segments include interest expense, net and other (expense) income, net.

The following tables reconcile the Company’s reportable operating segments performance to that of the Company (dollars in thousands):

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.  We have based these forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russia and Ukraine conflict, inflation and global supply chain constraints on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition, our expectations that we will maintain sufficient liquidity and remain in compliance with the terms of the Company’s credit facility, expectations about future demand and raw material costs, and statements regarding the impact of increased raw material costs and pricing initiatives, on our current expectations about future events. These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, intentions, financial condition, results of operations, future performance, and business, including but not limited to the potential benefits of the Combination and other acquisitions, the impacts on our business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and global supply chain constraints, and our current and future results and plans and statements that include the words "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan" or similar expressions.  These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements.  A major risk is that demand for the Company's products and services is largely derived from the demand for its customers' products, which subjects the Company to uncertainties related to downturns in a customer's business and unanticipated customer production slowdowns and shutdowns, including as is currently being experienced by many automotive industry companies as a result of supply chain disruptions. Other major risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the primary and secondary impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including actions taken in response to the pandemic by various governments, which could exacerbate some or all of the other risks and uncertainties faced by the Company, as well as inflationary pressures, including the potential for significant increases in raw material costs, supply chain disruptions, customer financial instability, rising interest rates and the potential of economic recession, worldwide economic and political disruptions, including the impacts of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the economic and other sanctions imposed by other nations on Russia, suspensions of activities in Russia by many multinational companies and the potential expansion of military activity, foreign currency fluctuations, significant changes in applicable tax rates and regulations, future terrorist attacks and other acts of violence. Furthermore, the Company is subject to the same business cycles as those experienced by our customers in the steel, automobile, aircraft, industrial equipment, and durable goods industries. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business will depend on, among other things, the extent and duration of the pandemic, the severity of the disease and the number of people infected with the virus including new variants, the continued uncertainty regarding global availability, administration, acceptance and long-term efficacy of vaccines, or other treatments for COVID-19 or its variants, the longer-term effects on the economy of the pandemic, including the resulting market volatility, and by the measures taken by governmental authorities and other third parties restricting day-to-day life and business operations and the length of time that such measures remain in place, as well as laws and other governmental programs implemented to address the pandemic or assist impacted businesses, such as fiscal stimulus and other legislation designed to deliver monetary aid and other relief. Other factors could also adversely affect us, including those related to the Combination and other acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses. Our forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company and its operations that are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond our control.  These risks, uncertainties, and possible inaccurate assumptions relevant to our business could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results.  All forward-looking statements included in this press release, including expectations about business conditions during 2022 and future periods, are based upon information available to the Company as of the date of this press release, which may change. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.  For more information regarding these risks and uncertainties as well as certain additional risks that we face, refer to the Risk Factors section, which appears in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and in subsequent reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We do not intend to, and we disclaim any duty or obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or for any other reason.  This discussion is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
